Families like the Huang Family, with an elder statesman still alive and descendants in high positions, all have their own exclusive family defense teams. And the soldiers in front of them are precisely the Huang Family's defense squad!

At this moment, the atmosphere instantly solidified, as if even the air had stopped flowing!

Lin Fan looked at the scene before him, his expression remaining calm and steady. In the past, when Lin Fan faced hundreds of mercenaries alone with only a gun and grenades, he never showed the slightest fear. Facing these soldiers with real guns, it was as if he was looking at a mere breeze.

"I'm leaving today. Do you think you can stop me?" Lin Fan squinted, a sly smile hanging on his lips.

"Lin, I know your identity! But don't forget, this is Huaxia, not your world. Put Ye Fei'Er down, and we can both stay out of each other's business." Huang Qishan shouted sternly.

"Didn't you hear what she just said? I need to take responsibility for her. If I let go now, do you think I would still be fit to be a man?" Lin Fan chuckled lightly.

"Then today, both you and this woman will die here!" Huang Qishan's eyes flared with murderous intent.

The noble clans of Yanjing—if they don't restore their dignity today, they'll become the laughingstock of all of Yanjing, unable to ever hold their heads high again!

Faced with such a scene, Ye Fei'Er's expression also turned serious. Lin Fan sensed her gripping his hand more firmly, sweat trickling from her palm!

Ye Fei'Er originally just wanted to humiliate Huang Wei and ruin the engagement party, but now the situation was far beyond her control. If the Huang Family was enraged, all of Yanjing City would quake in fear!

"If you regret it now, it's not too late, at worst I'll just accept my fate!" Ye Fei'Er's voice suddenly sounded from behind Lin Fan.

Lin Fan turned to look; Ye Fei'Er was gazing at him, a hint of resignation in her beautiful eyes, as if she was ready to accept fate and return to marry Huang Wei!

Seeing Lin Fan remain silent, Ye Fei'Er forced a self-deprecating smile, her eyes glistening red. She broke free from Lin Fan's hand, preparing to turn and leave.

"Did I say you could go?" Lin Fan suddenly remarked, gripping Ye Fei'Er's soft jade-like hand tightly once more. He smiled slightly and said, "You just called me your man. Do you think I'm the type to be cowardly and evade responsibility?"

"When... did I ever say you are my man..."

Ye Fei'Er's voice was small, like the buzzing of a mosquito. Her pretty face flushed with embarrassment like a shy rose, her eyes glancing secretly at Lin Fan filled with infatuation.

At this moment, she felt the figure standing by her side was so great, so majestic, worthy of her spending her life with!

"Let's go."

Lin Fan gently smiled. With that, he held Ye Fei'Er's hand and took a step forward, heading towards the door blocked by soldiers armed with live ammunition.

"Anyone who takes another step will be executed!" Huang Qishan ordered, waving his hand aggressively.

"I'd like to see who's brave enough!" Shortly after, another assertive voice echoed.

In an instant, the crowd was once again astonished. One Lin Fan standing up to the Huang Family was shocking enough, and there was another who dared to defy them. Eyes turned collectively towards the source of the voice.

A couple was walking through the crowd. Lin Fan recognized the elegant lady—it was Ye Fei'Er's mother—and beside her was a man in a black suit.

With his back straight like a gun barrel, his face stern with an air of military discipline, stood Ye Fei'Er's father, Ye Zhengrong!

Upon seeing Ye Fei'Er, Mrs. Ye was already in tears, sobbing, "Fei'Er, let go. We daughters of noble families have no right to choose our own happiness."

"Mom, I won't accept it. I don't want to be treated as a tool!" Ye Fei'Er's voice was hoarse, tears streaming down her delicate face.

"Fei'Er, come home with me; let's not make a scene." Mrs. Ye pleaded desperately.

"I'm not going back!" Ye Fei'Er bit her lip, wanting to hold back the tears and appear stronger, but her tears defied her and she soon turned into a crying mess.

"Fei'Er…"

Mrs. Ye wanted to persuade her, but Ye Zhengrong suddenly interrupted, pointing angrily at Ye Fei'Er's nose, yelling, "Ye Fei'Er, have you lost your mind? Is this shameful display not enough for you?"

"Lost my mind? Ha! Am I the one who's lost their mind? It's all of you who have gone mad!"

Ye Fei'Er cried and laughed at the same time, almost as if she were losing her senses. Yet clearly, Lin Fan felt her grip his hand even tighter, her nails digging into his flesh, but Lin Fan didn't resist. He understood Ye Fei'Er's emotions at the moment—she was unwilling and even more furious!

Ye Fei'Er sobbed uncontrollably, "I'm just a regular girl; I want my own happiness. I don't want to be a tool for your gain!"

"Five years ago, I finally found my first happiness, and what did you do? Did you bless me? No, you pressured that ordinary boy and drove his family out of Yanjing. At that time, you told me I was the pride of the Ye Family, that I couldn't give up the family honor for a bit of affection, that I should marry someone extraordinary, only a person like that would deserve me!"

"I was young then, believed everything you said. And what was the outcome? You pushed me into the arms of a scoundrel for your gain. Did you ever consider my feelings? Does the Ye Family need to sell a woman's body for glory now? Where are the Ye men? Have they all died?"

"I hate you all! I hate you for blocking my love, my dreams, forcing me to follow the path you laid down! What noble family? What young miss? What wealth and fortune? I just want to be an ordinary girl!"

"It doesn't matter if the person I love has money or not; we can struggle together, strive together, spend more when we have more and less when we have less!"

"We can watch romance dramas together, cry and have him wipe my tears, wake up hungry at night and make a simple midnight snack. We could have an adorable child, give them a cute name, travel everywhere as a family of three, see different sights, meet different people and things!"

"I do everything I'm doing now because you forced me! It's all because of you…"

Ye Fei'Er hysterically shouted, crying relentlessly while covering her face. At this moment, she was no longer the arrogant young miss, just a pathetic girl longing for her own happiness!

As Ye Fei'Er poured out her heart, the entire hotel fell into a complete silence, the sound of a pin drop could be heard!
